 Puking Harley's

There is a ball and spring in the oil pump and over the winter oil seeps pass the ball and oil settles in the bottom end. When u flash her up it pukes the oil out it is nornal for harleys to do this over the winter or sitting for a while. If it does this all the time then you are better to get a new pump, BUT this is normal for Harley's.
